My Current Faves

MY CURRENT FAVES

Just want to share with you guys a few things I'm loving right now that span the kitchen, body and mind.  Many of these would make great Mother's Day gifts too....Enjoy!

 

A TEAPOT ALMOST TOO BEAUTIFUL TO DRINK FROM

I wandered into this store on Prince and Crosby in downtown Manhattan and was totally in love with everything.  It was pretty hard for me to pick one image to share here.  They have a beautiful Moroccan-inspired collection of teapots, and I really love the 'tea for one' sets - waaay better than pouring hot water over a bag in a mug.  Their matcha is also incredible; I cook with it.  My mom is definitely getting something from here for Mother's Day!

Love what this Nigerian-born, America-residing artist is doing.  Definitely checking her out at the Brooklyn museum later this month.

GOOD READS

The Queen of the Night

I heard the author speak and read a chapter from the book at a MacDowell event a few weeks back and was transported.  This is what I'm reading at every free moment!
